Another noticeable example of ''Ultimate''{{'}}s unique art style comes from its panoramic poster, which features every playable character in the roster. The banner has a unique hand-painted look that reflects the game's balance between color and detail. It was conceptualized by Sakurai and illustrated by Yusuke Nakano, who designed characters for ''The Legend of Zelda'' series and ''Super Metroid''. Nakano decided to spread the roster evenly across the entire canvas, rather than focusing on the center, to keep the whole image visually interesting and balanced. He also consulted with the original creators on each character's pose within the artwork.<ref>[https://www.siliconera.com/2019/07/02/super-smash-bros-ultimate-illustrator-details-the-making-of-the-everyone-is-here-artwork/]</ref> Character artwork in the banner was used for the game's box art. The banner was routinely updated with the addition of each new fighter. The placements of fighters were often shifted to make room for these additions, and the banner got marginally wider every time this happened. [[Mr. Saturn]], [[Morgana]], and [[Slime]] are the only 3 non-playable characters in this banner.

==Trivia==
*Masahiro Sakurai showed an early version of {{SSBU|Sephiroth}}'s artwork in a [[YouTube]] video<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKQ2v9kno9I=158s Odds and Ends of Supervising [Graphics]]</ref>, notably with different contrast on the Masamune that was changed to make it look sharper.
